Szöveg: Ministry of Defence | 2015. február 4. 9:20Minister of Defence Csaba Hende received the experts of the US Joint Special Operations University on a courtesy call. The Minister of Defence emphasized that the special operations forces (SOF) capability plays an important role in the Hungarian Defence Forces and is at once a special field of American–Hungarian military-to-military relations.
The feedback received from the personnel shows that the knowledge shared by the trainers from the Joint Special Operations University (JSOU) greatly contributes to the effective development of capabilities.
During the discussions it was announced that the Ministry of Defence would like to continue the ongoing cooperation in the future as well. A possible way to achieve this is to incorporate the opportunities provided by the American military university into the system of military higher education. US Defense Attaché Col. Mark M. Karas was also present at the meeting.
Conventional military forces cannot be used effectively against the new types of challenges in our age and the threats of international terrorism. That is why there is a need for developing and sustaining a special military capability which meets the special requirements of asymmetric warfare.
